It's Not the Stork!: A Book About Girls, Boys, Babies, Bodies, Families and Friends Broché – 26 août 2008
Young children are curious about almost everything, especially their bodies. And young children are not afraid to ask questions. What makes me a girl? What makes me a boy? Why are some parts of girls' and boys' bodies the same and why are some parts different? How was I made? Where do babies come from? Is it true that a stork brings babies to mommies and daddies?
It's Not the Stork! helps answer these endless and perfectly normal questions that preschool, kindergarten, and early elementary school children ask about how they began. Through lively, comfortable language and sensitive, engaging artwork, Robie H. Harris and Michael Emberley address readers in a reassuring way, mindful of a child's healthy desire for straightforward information. Two irresistible cartoon characters, a curious bird and a squeamish bee, provide comic relief and give voice to the full range of emotions and reactions children may experience while learning about their amazing bodies. Vetted and approved by science, health, and child development experts, the information is up-to-date, age-appropriate, and scientifically accurate, and always aimed at helping kids feel proud, knowledgeable, and comfortable about their own bodies, about how they were born, and about the family they are part of.
Back matter includes an index.

Description du produit
Revue de presse
—School Library Journal (starred review)
Harris’ respectful writing targets children’s natural curiosity without cloaking matters in obfuscating language.
—Booklist (starred review)
In their previous landmark volumes . . . Harris and Emberley established themselves as the purveyors of reader-friendly, straightforward information on human sexuality for readers as young as seven. Here they successfully tackle the big questions . . . for even younger kids.

An excellent introduction to babies’ origins for youngest curious minds.

Nothing that would make me or my kids inconfortable.
Funny without being silly. A great way to talk about the making baby things that overcome my expectations !!

It also says boys stand to pee as a difference with girls, which is NOT what we want to teach our boys. The world would be a MUCH cleaner place if parents just simply taught their boys to sit to pee just like girls!


I bought for my 7 year old boy, and theres a few sections I feel were not necessary for even his age...
Probably more appropriate for 10-11 year olds in my personal opinion.
And no, I'm not a prude, I'm a young single mum who made questionable choices... trying to find an age appropriate way to discuss sex education so he's more informed than I was.
